WISE WORDS.

What President Cleveland Said to the
Members of tho Evangelical Alliance on
Their Visit to Him at the White House.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 9.-The President
and Mrs. Cleveland to-day received in
body the delegates who are now in Wash
ington attending the Evangelical Alli-
ance. Upon being presented to the Chris
tian workers in the East room, the Presi-
dent said: 81 am glad to meet so large q
delegation from the Evangelical Alliance
of the United States. l underst and the
purpose of this alliance to be the applca-
tion of Christian rules of conduct to the
problems and exingencies of social and po-
. litical life. Such movement can not fail
to produce the most valuable results. All
must admit that the reception of the teach.
ings of Christianity results in the purest
patriotism, in the most scrupulous fidelity
to public trust and in the best tyne of citi-
zenship. Those who MANAGE the affairs
of government, are by this means re-
minded that the law of God demands that
they should be courageously true to the
interests of the people, and that the Ruler
of the Universe will require of them a
strict account of their stewardship. The
people, too, are thus taught that their
happiness and welfare will be
BEST, promoted by conscientious
for the interest of a common
brotherhood, and that the success of
Government by the people depends upon
the morality, the justice and the honesty
of the people. I am especially pleased to
know that your efforts are not cramped
and limited by UNCONVENTIONAL lines and
that your credentials are found in a broad
Christian fellowship. ManifestIy, if Won
seek to teach your countrymen federation
you yourselves must be tolerant; il Won
would teach them liberality for the
opinions of each other you yourselves
must be liberal, and if you would teach
them unselfish patriotism you yourselves
must be unselfish and patriotic.
There is enough of work in the
field you have entered to enlist
hearty cooperation of all who believe
in the value and efficiency of Christian
teaching and practice. Your noble mis-
sion, il undertaken in broad and
generous spirit, will surely arrest the at-
tention and respectful consideration of
your fellow citizens, and your endeayors.
conseerated by benevolence and patriotic
love, must exert powerful influence in
the enlightenment and Improvement of
our people in illustrating the strength and
stability OF our institutions, and in ad-
vancing the prosperity and greatness of
our beloved land"
